Optimus #103

Open TheDharc opened 7 years ago

TheDharc commented 7 years ago

Hey @mattmacy do you have any idea how to use Nvidia Optimus? I have a new laptop with Nvidia 940m and Skylake. No option to disable Optimus in BIOS =/.

mattmacy commented 7 years ago

PRIME support as required by Optimus is done. But above and beyond that I've never had access to a laptop that uses Optimus so I haven't looked in to it. There is additional code required for GPU switching in linux "vga_switcheroo" which still needs to be ported in order for this to work.

Any idea when we gonna see this branch merged in STABLE? Ready to 11.1?

mattmacy commented 7 years ago

It still needs to be committed to -CURRENT first and that requires a committer to do.
